Funny, that’s actually what motivated me at my last job. Things were fucked up, but not so fucked up that it was overwhelming. It was the Goldilocks zone of just fucked up enough that I think I can not only fix it, but look good if I do. It was a fun journey, all told, but there were definitely frustrations, even ones that lasted years.

I’m so sorry you see things this way. I just left my job after many years at the company, and while my goal wasn’t to make friends I definitely ended up collecting a few along the way. I was in upper management and definitely cared about my team, and so did the directors under me. I befriended some of the people in the C-suite as well. They threw a nice, big surprise going away dinner for me, which they definitely didn’t need to do. I’ve met up with former coworkers in other departments to catch up, because we genuinely enjoy each other’s company. I hope you find a place that values you and that you can find a friend or two that you can keep in your life.

My growth and dividend portfolios are already mostly focused on ETFs, such as LIT and QCLN. The problem is that LIT and QCLN have done so well that they took over my growth portfolio. Selling to rebalance could be one option, but feels like giving up on something that worked, and since they’re ETFs and not stocks, I don’t feel the need to really sell them since, as you pointed out, they should be relatively safe thanks to being ETFs.
